The definitions of ischemic cerebrovascular disease are shown in Table 1. Section 2 Emergency assessment and diagnosis of ischemic stroke patients Please refer to Figure 1 for details of the management process for ischemic stroke patients in the acute phase. I. First assessment of emergency (I) Medical history collection Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients suffer from acute onset. It is very important to inquire about the time of occurrence of symptoms, onset characteristics and progress, including symptom persistence, fluctuations and relief. If the disease starts onset during sleep, the time when the patient's last normal performance should be recorded. These patients may also get sick shortly before waking up, and the onset time is uncertain, but clinically the final normal time should still be calculated as the last normal time [1-2]. Using MRI to screen wake-up stroke patients who are not suitable for thrombectomy, intravenous thrombolysis helps patients get good prognosis [3]. Before the occurrence of current symptoms, some patients will have similar TIA symptoms that can be relieved automatically. The time window for thrombolytic therapy is calculated based on the occurrence time of current symptoms. The inquiry about whether there are causes related to haemorrhagic stroke before the occurrence of symptoms, such as emotional excitement, intense exercise, sudden change of body position, excessive blood pressure reduction, as well as whether there is a history of Liu L, et al. Stroke Vasc Neurol 2020; 5:e000378. doi: 10.1136/svn-2020-000378 Supplementary material Stroke Vasc Neurol Supplemental Material Liu Page 3 stroke or similar stroke-like diseases (such as epilepsy and hypoglycaemia attacks), has certain significance for diagnosis. Other medical history should include the presence or absence of atherosclerosis risk factors (such as hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidaemia) and heart disease risk factors (such as atrial fibrillation), drug abuse, migraine, infection, trauma, surgery and pregnancy history, and attention should be paid to the patient's recent medication, especially the presence or absence of anticoagulant drugs. For patients with consciousness disorder, doctors can ask their family members or witnesses about the disease. (II) Physical examination After emergency doctors and stroke team doctors evaluate the airway and respiratory and circulatory functions individually or jointly, they will immediately carry out general physical examination, including auscultation of large cervical vessels and heart. (III) Auxiliary examination (such as blood glucose, electrocardiogram, troponin, chest radiography) Timely imaging examination is very important for quick assessment and diagnosis of patients with possible ischemic stroke. All patients should first select urgent cranial CT examination to exclude cerebral haemorrhage, and MRI may be chosen if conditions permit, but should not delay thrombolysis therapy. For patients suspected of macrovascular occlusion, MRA or CTA should be performed as soon as possible (at the same time of thrombolysis) to determine whether intravascular treatment Liu L, et al. Stroke Vasc Neurol 2020; 5:e000378. doi: 10.1136/svn-2020-000378 Supplementary material Stroke Vasc Neurol Supplemental Material Liu Page 4 conditions are available. For the process of skull imagological examination for patients suspected of ischemic stroke after entering the emergency department, see Supplemental Table 1. For all suspected stroke patients, routine laboratory examination should be carried out immediately upon arrival at the emergency department, including blood glucose, renal function, electrolyte, blood routine including platelet count, coagulation function including international standardized ratio (INR), myocardial ischemia markers, and bedside electrocardiogram examination should be performed. Because time is of the utmost importance, thrombolytic therapy should not be delayed due to waiting for the above laboratory results, unless the patient has oral anticoagulants or obvious history of coagulation. Retrospective analysis of patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis has found that the probability of unexpected coagulation disorders and thrombocytopenia is very low [4-5].For the vast majority of patients, blood glucose test results must be acquired before thrombolytic therapy [6]. Some laboratory tests can be selected for specific patients, toxicological screening can be performed for suspected drug abuse, chest radiography can be performed for suspected aortic dissection, electroencephalogram can be performed for suspected epilepsy, lumbar puncture can be performed for suspected intracranial infection or subarachnoid haemorrhage, blood gas examination can be performed for hypoxia, and pregnancy tests can be performed for women of childbearing age. For intravenous thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy, the earlier treatment is Liu L, et al. Stroke Vasc Neurol 2020; 5:e000378. doi: 10.1136/svn-2020-000378 Supplementary material Stroke Vasc Neurol Supplemental Material Liu Page 5 started, the greater the benefit. Many studies abroad suggest that the average or median door-to-imaging time under different hospital configurations is less than 20min [7-10].However, a large-scale registration study in China in 2011 showed that the average door-to-needle time (DNT) in China was 116min, and the average imaging- to-needle time (INT) was 90min. Therefore, based on China's national conditions and actual clinical practice, skull imagological examination should be completed within 30min for patients suspected of ischemic stroke [11]. Recommendations [1] It is recommended that patients suspected of having an ischemic stroke should complete finish brain imaging within 30 minutes of arrival at the emergency department (Class I, Level of Evidence B). [2] Emergency assessment of blood glucose, renal function, electrolytes, complete blood count (including platelet count), blood coagulation (including INR), cardiac injury markers, and a bedside 12-lead ECG is recommended, but should not delay the initiation of IV rt-PA. For most patients, only the assessment of blood glucose must precede the initiation of IV rt-PA (Class I, Level of Evidence B). (IV) Definitions of penumbra Liu L, et al. Stroke Vasc Neurol 2020; 5:e000378. doi: 10.1136/svn-2020-000378 Supplementary material Stroke Vasc Neurol Supplemental Material Liu Page 6 The hypoperfusion brain tissue is divided into three parts according to function and prognosis. The centre is the irreversible infarction core, and the outermost periphery is the hypoperfusion area with intact function. The area between them is the ischemic penumbra. The brain tissue in the penumbra is at risk of irreversible ischemic damage, but this part of brain tissue can be saved if blood perfusion is restored in time. Therefore, ischemic penumbra is currently an important therapeutic target for AIS [12]. The early studies mainly explored the best time window to save the penumbra [13-14], but the general and narrow time window will cause many potentially beneficial patients to have poor prognosis due to failure to receive reperfusion therapy. With the development of multi-mode imaging, the penumbra can be accurately identified by judging whether the infarct core matches its peripheral hypoperfusion areas, which prolongs the treatment time window and has important clinical guiding value. Researchers further set a target mismatch (TMM) by comparing the relationship between different mismatch degrees and prognosis, which means that more ischemic penumbra can be saved under a specific mismatch threshold and the prognosis is better after reperfusion therapy [15]. Common imaging strategies include diffusion- perfusion imaging mismatch, CTP, clinical imaging mismatch and diffusion-flair mismatch. Other technologies such as DWI-SWI mismatch, ASL-PWI mismatch, APTW and MR OMI have been reported, but have not been applied to large-scale clinical trials [16-19]. Liu L, et al. Stroke Vasc Neurol 2020; 5:e000378. doi: 10.1136/svn-2020-000378 Supplementary material Stroke Vasc Neurol Supplemental Material Liu Page 7 In many large-scale clinical studies, for intravenous thrombolysis or intravascular therapy, such as DEFUSE, DEFUSE2, EPITHET, DEDAS, DAWN, and DEFUSE3, the most widely used and mature imaging strategy is diffusion-perfusion imaging mismatch (DWI-PWI mismatch) [15, 20-22]. It uses the mismatch between DWI infarction core area and PWI hypoperfusion area to identify ischemic penumbra. At present, the generally accepted set threshold is: the area with Tmax > 6s on PWI is set as the hypoperfusion area, the area with ADC < 600×10-6mm2/s on DWI is set as the infarction core area, and the target mismatch is defined as the area with infarction core area < 70ml, ischemic penumbra > 15ml, and the area with the ratio of total hypoperfusion area to ischemic core area being > 1.8 [15].At present, required data can be directly obtained by using software such as Rapid. Although the DWI-PWI mismatch

Received: 27 April 2018; Accepted: 12 June 2018; Published: 15 June 2018 Abstract: Indobufen is a new generation of anti-platelet aggregation drug, but studies were not sufficient on its anticoagulant effects. In the present study, the anticoagulant activity of indobufen was determined by monitoring the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), and thrombin time (TT) in rabbit plasma. We evaluated the anticoagulant mechanisms on the content of the platelet factor 3,4 (PF3,4), and the coagulation factor 1, 2, 5, 8, 10 (FI, II, V, VIII, X) in rabbits, as well as the in vivo bleeding time and clotting time in mice. The pharmacodynamic differences between indobufen and warfarin sodium, rivaroxaban, and dabigatran were further studied on thrombus formation and the content of FII and FX in rats.

  • Rotenone-Induced Inner Retinal Degeneration Via Presynaptic
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Rotenone-induced inner retinal degeneration via presynaptic activation of voltage-dependent sodium and L-type calcium channels in rats Masaaki Sasaoka, Takashi Ota & Masaaki Kageyama* Rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I inhibitor, causes retinal degeneration via unknown mechanisms. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of its action, we further characterized a rat model of rotenone- induced retinal degeneration. Intravitreal injection of rotenone (2 nmol/eye) damaged mainly the inner retinal layers, including cell loss in the ganglion cell and inner nuclear layers, which were very similar to those induced by 10 nmol/eye N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA). These morphological changes were accompanied by the reduced b-wave amplitude of electroretinogram, and increased immunostaining of 2,4-dinitrophenyl, an oxidative stress marker. Rotenone also downregulated expression of neuroflament light-chain gene (Nf) as a retinal ganglion cell (RGC) marker. This efect was prevented by simultaneous injection of rotenone with antioxidants or NMDA receptor antagonists. More importantly, voltage-dependent sodium and L-type calcium channel blockers and intracellular calcium signaling modulators remarkably suppressed rotenone-induced Nf downregulation, whereas none of these agents modifed NMDA-induced Nf downregulation. These results suggest that rotenone-induced inner retinal degeneration stems from indirect postsynaptic NMDA stimulation that is triggered by oxidative stress-mediated presynaptic intracellular calcium signaling via activation of voltage-dependent sodium and L-type calcium channels. Rotenone is a naturally occurring and broad-spectrum pesticide that inhibits the activity of NADH dehydroge- nase in the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I1. Because of this unique biological activity, rotenone has been used as a versatile tool to study involvement of mitochondrial functions and oxidative stress in neuronal cell death.

  • Desmoteplase for Acute Ischaemic Stroke
    Desmoteplase for acute ischaemic stroke September 2011 This technology summary is based on information available at the time of research and a limited literature search. It is not intended to be a definitive statement on the safety, efficacy or effectiveness of the health technology covered and should not be used for commercial purposes. The National Horizon Scanning Centre Research Programme is part of the National Institute for Health Research September 2011 Desmoteplase for acute ischaemic stroke Target group • Acute ischaemic stroke – within 3 to 9 hours of the onset of symptoms. Technology description Desmoteplase (LU-AE-03329) is a recombinant fibrin-specific plasminogen activator derived from the saliva of the vampire bat, Desmodus rotundus. It catalyses the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin, the enzyme responsible for breaking down fibrin blood clots. Structurally, desmoteplase is very similar to human tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA), but its activity is 200 times more fibrin-specific than tPA. It therefore does not cause systemic plasminogen activation and fibrinogen depletion. Desmoteplase is intended to be used for the treatment of patients with acute ischaemic stroke in the extended time window of 3 to 9 hours after the onset of symptoms. It is administered as an IV bolus at 90µg/kg (dose used in ongoing phase III clinical trials). Innovation and/or advantages If licensed, desmoteplase would extend the time window for thrombolysis in acute stroke from 3 hours to 9 hours. In addition, because it is highly fibrin-specific it may not have some of the negative effects of tPA (like systemic plasminogen activation and neurotoxicity).
